The courses at MSFS focus on developing skills that you actually use when analyzing or proposing foreign policy.  The short memorandum, oral presentations, and group projects give you a sense of what it would be like to work for the government or an NGO.  It also helps that your professors have usually worked in the field for years, so they know what future employers are looking for.
